Flag-controlled while loop
A Boolean flag determines whether the loop continues.
Unlike a standard while loop, continuation is controlled by a flag rather than a Boolean expression.
Code Sample 28.2 demonstrates a flag-controlled while loop in Java.
The example initializes i to 1 and flag to true.
While flag is true, the program performs an action and increments i.
The loop checks whether i is greater than 10.
If i is greater than 10, flag becomes false and the loop stops.
If i is not greater than 10, the loop continues with another iteration.

"Another common use case for a while loop is a flag-controlled loop in which we use a Boolean flag rather than an expression to determine if a loop should continue or not. An example can be found in Code Sample 28.2.\n\n1 int i = 1;\n\n2 boolean flag = true;\n\n3 while(flag) {\n\n4 //perform some action\n\n5 i++; //iteration\n\n6 if(i>10) {\n\n7 flag = false;\n\n8 }\n\n9 }\n\nCode Sample 28.2.: Flag-controlled While Loop in Java"
